Did you like the 2010 release of Pretty Hate Machine? I don't have PHM. Not a fan of that album. I have Hesitation Marks, and it does sound good. Again, cautiously optimistic about the releases. psus2h 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steeltoeagogo Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I feel like with Trent being the way he is they should come out sounding good. Obviously there's a chance for it all to go wrong but I trust most all of his projects to have more love put into it than his own children. psus2h and Adam10647 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Weren't The Fragile repress and the Deviations press delayed on account of Reznor wanting to find adequate time to give them the detail and attention they deserved? I'm probably not ordering them myself, but if I were I'd be buying with confidence as I'm sure they'll be handled better than 90% of the current pre-orders on VC. Little things like 180 gram don't necessarily equate to better sound fidelity, but it tells me that they're willing to go the extra mile and not fuck around with a subpar product.

jhulud Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 For years on end, Reznor had been teasing and saying that his goal was to see a re-release of The Fragile with all kinds of bells and whistles and allegeded remastered and remixed for a 5.1 sound he was enamored with at the time. It was to include loads of unreleased tracks and whatnot but it never truly came to fruition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeromium Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I think I'm gonna have to get Broken - my favorite NIN release. Still have my 1992 CD with bonus 3". Adam10647 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daegor Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Not that I've seen. I'm surprised it's on Amazon, honestly given Trent's association with Apple and the fact that the short film that this is for is hosted on the iTunes Store. psus2h 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been more and more impressed with iTunes and their mastering requirements for tracks. Amazon doesn't have them and a lot of auto rip I've received from them seems to be less dynamic than its MFiT counterpart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 FYI, the NIN store will NOT combine orders. So if you hastily ordered Deviations and now want to order something else, you'll have to cancel or pay for shipping twice. tl;dr They ain't no Mondo.

Dustinhxc Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Yeah I learned the hard way and went back to get Deviations after getting a couple things already. Soon Ill go back for With Teeth and Year Zero too. lol A lot of shipping costs, oh well! Worth it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 If it makes you guys feel any better, shipping appears to stack. $5 media mail for one record. $10 media for 2. $15 media for 3, etc. etc. vinyl addict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzo Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Weird that uk gets cheaper shipping (around 6pounds) and mainland Europe gets a whopping 26$ shipping. Hoooping that these will also appear in stores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntslash Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I listened to my copy of Year Zero today, and holy crap does it sound fantastic. I don't see how Trent can improve on the original pressing, but I'm looking forward to finding out if he can. vinyl addict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And surely no coincidence that it was also the weakest release to follow their string of quality records, up through Year Zero. I guess you could say they really slipped up on that whole affair. I'll be here all week. ntslash and vinyl addict 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I wonder if they'll reup the stock of Fragile LPs like they did Deviations? The Fragile is down to around 800 copies left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not accusing you of calling me a liar, but when I add those 3 items to a cart and selected Media Mail just for kicks, I get reamed with $14 and change on top of some garbage California tax. When and if I come around to revisiting NIN's catalog and ordering vinyl, remind me to never do it from their webstore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I ordered Deviations 1, NTAE 12", and NTAE digital + physical and my shipping came out to $25 or so. No taxes. It didn't give me any media mail option when I ordered on day one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
